We played great the last 15 minutes [against Syracuse]. If we put that to 40 minutes, I'm sure another team will get worn down and eventually fold. I'm pretty sure the four guys who have been through [the road to the Final Four] know how hard it is. They need to push me, Rudy, Marcus Williams, because they've been there.

That loss at Marquette was just a bad loss for us. We came back on the road at Syracuse. This was a statement game for us. We just went out there and played basketball and made a statement. The statement was that we're here and we're here to stay. We're not pushovers. We're not little boys. We're men out there.

It was like the last 15 minutes of the Syracuse game. We played hard and we got into each other.

We've just got to get better by using these games. Personally, me, yeah, I want to get those big games. I liked those games in Maui. I'm still going to play hard against Quinnipiac, but next week we start a bigger, real-deal season.
